Ah yes, the Encyclopedia Britannica. I purchased a set of the Britannica 3 two years ago, and have been fascinated by some of the current titles on the "Macropedia" (in depth) volumes. They seem to have dropped the "to" indicators, though. My favorite volumes are "Conifer / Ear Diseases" and "Metamorphic / New Jersey", with "Sonar / Tax Law" and "Peking / Probability" running a close second.
